<div>For the last year, our three-year-old son Teddy has been battling neuroblastoma, a rare and aggressive childhood cancer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He has come so far. But we've now hit a devastating setback. The maintenance treatment that helps prevent his cancer coming back has been unexpectedly withdrawn here in the UK. At the same time, complications from his treatment mean Teddy has already lost part of the protection he had. The only way we can now get him what he needs is to fund it ourselves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Teddy is at high risk of his cancer returning, and for children who relapse, survival rates are heartbreakingly low. This treatment is what stands between our son and that risk. We're asking for your help to give him the very best chance of beating this for good.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for anything you can give, and for sharing Teddy's story.

<div><strong>Teddy's story</strong>
</div>
<div>Hi, I'm Sarah. Together with my husband Kramer, I'm raising money for the bravest little boy we know, our son, Teddy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Teddy was a happy, curious, bright blonde little boy with a head of curls, always exploring and into everything. Then, at the end of June 2025, everything changed.
</div>
<div>It started with what we thought was teething. But Teddy stopped eating and drinking, began sleeping for hours in the day as well as all night, and then the vomiting began.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a paediatric nurse, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was seriously wrong, and then, during a baby massage, I felt a lump in his tummy and my heart dropped.
</div>
<div>After weeks of GP and hospital visits, on 16th July 2025 we were given the news no parent is ever ready to hear: Teddy had high-risk neuroblastoma, a rare and aggressive childhood cancer. The tumour was so large it filled his entire abdomen, pressing on his organs and making it hard for him to eat or even breathe. The cancer had already spread to his bone marrow.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since then, our family has been living a life we could never have imagined. Kramer and I have lived on the ward at the Noah's Ark Children's Hospital in Cardiff, taking it in shifts so Teddy is never alone, while his baby brother Joey has stayed with my parents. Being apart as a family has been one of the hardest parts of all.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Teddy has fought through more in one year than most people face in a lifetime. Months of intense chemotherapy. A central line, an NG tube and oxygen. Weeks bed-bound and so poorly he went silent, only able to move his eyes. High-risk surgery in Birmingham to remove as much of the tumour as possible. Stem cell harvesting and high-dose chemotherapy. Proton beam therapy in London. Countless blood and platelet transfusions, scans, anaesthetics and bone marrow tests. Along the way he's battled norovirus, a serious liver complication called VOD, a life-threatening lung infection, and immunotherapy so tough it gave him a reaction staff hadn't seen in years — an infusion that fell right over his 3rd birthday.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Through it all, Teddy has had to learn to walk again more than once, has faced food aversions and setbacks, and most recently has had his vision badly affected by his medication. And yet he keeps smiling, keeps fighting, and keeps being our Teddy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But now we face our biggest challenge yet.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Teddy is at high risk of his cancer coming back, and for children who relapse, survival rates are heartbreakingly low. There is a maintenance treatment that helps prevent relapse but it has just been unexpectedly withdrawn here in the UK.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In the entire world, there are only three options left to give Teddy this vital protection: two in America and one in Rome. Every one of them comes with a significant cost.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>That's why we're asking for your help. We simply cannot stand by knowing there is a treatment out there that could stop this disease returning and give our little boy the future he deserves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every single pound raised will go towards Teddy's ongoing treatment, whatever that looks like, including any unassociated costs, giving him the very best possible chance of beating this for good.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are so grateful for anything you can give, whether it's a donation or simply sharing Teddy's story far and wide. Thank you for standing together with us, and for helping us fight for Teddy's future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love and gratitude,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sarah, Kramer, Teddy and Joey.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>This fundraiser was set up by me, Sarah, Teddy's mum. I am the organiser and the beneficiary along with my husband, Kramer, and all donations come directly to my bank account. Every penny raised goes towards Teddy's treatment and the costs that come with it. Nothing is being taken for anything else.</strong>
